When manufacturing our machines, we have been able to convince our customers by keep-ing to a simple yet unbeatable concept for years: massive quality designed to survive years of use. This starts right always with the basics. After all, the machine stands are made of stable, one-piece cast stands, coated on all sides – and even underneath! – with stain-less steel. The massive cast stands provide an unbeatable stability and smooth running. All power units are integrated into the ma-chines. The machines are immediately ready for use without any additional construction measures, you only need to connect up the media connections.

A very stable base:massive and indestructible!

The heart of the machines is comprised of high-ly efficient motors. Modern drive regulators control the blades and tubs with variably con-figurable revolution speeds. The special feature is that the tub rpm range is almost double that of standard cutters! This enables a previously unknown level of production flexibility.

Various, specially developed blade shapes en-able optimum production using individual recipes. A special energy-saving torque tool is all that is needed to quickly and safely change the blades. The high, vibration-free stability of the machine stands underlines yet another advantage: the blades can be adjusted easily and very accurately and require only a minimal distance to the tub. This in turn results in un-paralleled, smooth and refined sausage meat!

The higher edges of the tub ensure the ma-chines stay clean even during the production of more liquid sausage meats. The tub has a large pouring orifice for faster emptying, which automatically returns to the cleaning position. This means that the tub drains automatically af-ter cleaning. Nearly all surfaces of the machines are inclined to ensure water flows off rapidly af-ter cleaning.

Quality always takes pride of place

Even the Cutmix series without vacuum tech-nology has an ideal cost-to-performance ra-tio in sausage meat production. But there is still no getting away from vacuum technolo-gy for special products. Because the oxygen is extracted, this cuts out most of the oxidation processes during cutting. Under vacuum the volume of the meat cells increases, which in turn facilitates fast and effective fine cutting.

Air bubbles in the mixture and consequent discoloration of the finished product are a thing of the past. Jelly creation is minimised. The finished product is pleasantly al dente, looks appetizing and keeps even longer. The benefits – in particular of producing boiled and cooked sausage with vacuum technol-ogy – extend all the way through to the actual selling.

First of all, vacuum technology sets high standards for the design of the machines. The vacuum lid alone is subjected to a pres-sure of over 30 tons. This is why we have developed a special form of lid, so that com-bined with the stable design of the machines it is possible to maintain an almost perfect vacuum. And this only requires one lid seal! With this development, we have once again

The decisive step forward: vacuum technology!

demonstrated how construction technol-ogy and intelligent design can be excellently combined. The strength of the vacuum can be set on the control panel. A standard, au-tomatic levelling system ensures that the set level remains constant. This is an indispensa-ble prerequisite for ensuring that the prod-uct quality is always the same at the same setting!

Easy operation via touch screen panel

All the large Cutmix series machines are ope-rated using an easy-to-clean touch screen panel. A clear display shows the current operational states. In order to avoid faulty production the machines are equipped with cutouts for the temperature of the mix, the number of tub revolutions and the time as well as self-diagnosis systems that continu-ally test various machine functions.

Perfection with CutControl

A great alleviation for operating personnel is the automatic CutControl programming. The cutter process is optimised by program-ming the cutting sequence on the machine or more comfortably using CutControl on a PC. Despite numerous new opportuni-ties the emphasis is still on easy operation. With in a certain framework CutControl can even compensate for fluctuating raw ma-terials characteristics to assure constant quality of the final products. And the cutter programmes can also be documented and archived at last.

The clearly-structured input screen indi-cates clearly and precisely all recipe data required for the respective batch as well as the required ingredients on a PC screen. False calculations can be avoided thanks to the automatic quantity converter which is able to convert the quantities of all ingre-dients for any desired batch size. The speeds for knife shafts and keys as well as tempera-ture limits etc. can be set optimally for any product. All procedures are started, i. e. con-firmed manually by pressing a single button so that handling errors can be excluded.

Recording with CutVision

With our CutVision software all the Cutmix range of machines can be integrated into usual PC networks. The software programme runs on every PC and records all the relevant production data and status reports. No user input required! The automatically recorded data can be called up again, viewed or print-ed at any time. This assures the traceability and the realisation of HACCP systems.

IT-Standard „WS-FOOD“

As an option, K+G Wetter can also supply its machines with the manufacturer-spanning IT interface standard “WS FOOD”. This makes it possible to connect any PC with Ethernet interface to the machine via Plug and Play. No additional installation works shall be nec-essary. Additionally, this standard permits networking of all machines from different manufacturers and their incorporation into existing process control and ERP systems.

Service, as it should be!

Our experienced application engineers en-sure detailed training in the use of the ma-chine and are also available for advice and help at all times. Very little upkeep is needed and it only minimally affects operating costs. Preventive upkeep, however, maintains the value of the machine and constantly ensures a high degree of operational reliability.

Test certificates & attestations

For customer safety, the machines are test-ed for safety and hygiene by experts of the Butchers Association. The type examination successfully concluded documents the high quality of K+G Wetter machines.

K+G Wetter, in its entirety, operates on the basis of the DIN ISO 9001 quality standard. An examination into adherence to the high quality standard is regularly undertaken from internal checks and by employing the services of independent external institutes.

Volume advantageThe tub can be filled very full and thus pro-vides maximum load so that a higher ton-nage per hour can be received.

AdaptabilityThe variable cutting area (the separator wall can be removed) allows the cutting of all product-specific variations.

High cutting speedThe variably configurable increased cutting speed of the cutting blades makes it possible to cut extremely finely in a very short time.

Emptying without unmixingThe specially developed ejector screen empties any type of sausage mix without unmixing; rapidly, cleanly, and safely. Nothing is lost!

Standardised safetyAll machines are manufactured conform to the latest standards and are tested by the Health & Safety to ensure they conform to the safety and health standards.

Worldwide serviceOur own service specialists and worldwide sales network means we can be on site im-mediately – anywhere.

Automatic quality assuranceStandard cutout monitoring, when time, temperature and/or key settings are reached.

Extendable quality assuranceAll Cutmix machines can be optionally equipped with CutVision, the recording sys-tem for process data that records all data so that it can be called up again on a any PC at any time.

Reproducible qualityThe programme control system CutControl can also be installed. This makes 100 % uni-form batches, and consequently ISO-conform quality assurance, child’s play.

Minimal energy consumptionThe infinitely variable cutter spindle drive only uses the amount of energy it actually needs. The energy feedback from the main-tenance-free electric cutter spindle braking system (4Q-rule) also reduces energy costs.

Benefits for the userThe ergonomically styled and adjustable operator panel is positioned in the centre of the front of the machine making it easy to reach. This makes precise work easier and consequently safer!

Advantages of the Cutmix range

Gentle cooking applianceThe sausage mix can cook gently while it is being cut. The tub is exposed to steam from the outside and then cooled again in the same manner using cold water. This elimi-nates the need to pre-cook it and avoids loss through boiling. Protein, minerals and all val-uable ingredients are fully preserved. There is no fatty and protein soiled wastewater. A special seal prevents steam from entering the product area.

Automatic water dosageThe correct dose of drinking water can be added directly in front of the cutters.

Cooling mediaPreparation for cooling using liquid nitrogen LN2

Special ventilation systemsIn air-conditioned production bays it is re- commended fitting out the machines with the optional forced ventilator. The energy saving quickly pays for the low additional expenditure. This enclosed air supply system also makes sense should the surroundings be unfavourable, such as dust-laden air and ex-treme high air humidity levels etc.

Extra-class extras

Patented cutting system The patented K+G WETTER milling head cut-ting system ensures perfect milling of all types of sausage mix. The system also runs extremely quietly even at high rpm’s.

Hygiene of the highest standardThe special design of the machines (fully coated with non-rusting stainless steel, in-clined outer walls) enables easy high-pres-sure cleaning and fast, complete drainage of the cleanser.

Safe handling with special power toolThe cap nut of the milling head is always tightened with the right torque using the easy to use K+G WETTER power tool. This pre-vents damage to cutter spindle and bearings! There is no more inconvenient juggling with hammers and wrenches. For faster changing of the nut the hydraulic nut is available as an option (time saving is about 25 %).

More safety The controls of the Cutmix machines are equipped with a self-diagnosis system as standard; this regularly tests the machine functions. There is also a centralised lubri-cation system that ensures all the relevant parts are properly lubricated.
